I figured I would do a little Thursday morning rant since it is about to rain here in Southern California so I cannot ride my motorcycle today.
I am absolutely fed up with the bait and switch rebate scams that seem to now be the norm rather than the exception these days when you go shopping for items. You know what I am talking about. You see a computer advertised for let’s say $999.00. You go to buy the computer; only to find out that the in-store price is actually $2,000.00 with a rebate of $1001.00.
They then tell you to look at the fine print of the ad for the rebate verbiage. You have just been sucked into their store by a bait and switch scam.
At this point at least in California, it is legal for stores and companies to advertise in this way. I think it is time for the California State Legislature to enact laws which prevent the bait and switch rebate scams that are going on.

I wanted to let our members, visitors, and everyone else know that on Monday, February 12, 2006, the software and database that drives the Biker Law Blog is going to be upgraded.
Upgrade COMPLETE -stk
This upgrade is necessary to better improve the engine that the Biker Law Blog runs on. This upgrade may cause some intermittent outages throughout the day, and also may cause some minor problems with functionality.
If you experience any problems, or notice any problems after February 12, 2006, I would appreciate you reporting them by email to Norman@norman-law.com .
Thank You,
Norman Gregory Fernandez, Esq.

I have been receiving tons of legal questions regarding motorcycle law, personal injury, family law, and motorcycle safety through the Blog System.
What is really annoying to me is when I receive a great question but the person does not leave their return email address so I can respond to their question.
If you want to contact me through the system you can click the little email icon next to any of my post. Make sure you include your email and contact information in your private message to me; otherwise there will be no way for me to know how to contact you.
You can also register as a member within the system on the right sidebar so that when you contact me, your email will be included. It would probably be best if you put a return email in your message even if you are a member of the Biker Law Blog.
You can also send me a direct email at law@norman-law.com or contact me through my Law Office Website at www.bikerlawyer.net.

If you have been on the Internet for any length of time you have probably been the victim of Spam. Spam is unsolicited email.
Some spammers are simply trying to pitch their product, while some spammers are trying to do other devious deeds to your computer by injecting harmful scripts, Trojans, viruses, spyware, and other nasty things into your computer.
You would be a fool to open an attachment in an unsolicited email.
These people are taking it to a level which I have never seen before. They are sending fake PayPal emails out, fake Bank emails out, fake official looking emails out from governmental entities, etc.
I for one receive no less than 1000 spam emails per day. I have multiple programs set up to catch and filter out spam, viruses, spyware, etc., but some of it still comes through.
There are various State and Federal laws setup that can give you a legal remedy against the Spammers and other malcontents. These laws provide for fines and prison time for those persons who are caught and prosecuted civilly and by law enforcement officials.
